Build a love of reading, enjoy a walk, and earn free gloves or mittens for chillier days ahead – participate in the Toledo Lucas County Public Library (TLCPL) StoryWalk® Challenge (https://www.toledolibrary.org/storywalk).
There are StoryWalks at all 19 Library locations where you stroll along a pathway and follow signs to the next page in the story. There is a different story at each location with bright pictures and suggestions for hopping, skipping, and exploring to make reading fun for young readers of all skill levels.
* Pick up a tracker card at any Library location (http://toledolibrary.org/locations) or download at toledolibrary.org/storywalk (https://www.toledolibrary.org/storywalk) .
* Visit 5 Library StoryWalks and check your visits.
* Bring the card to any location by Dec. 30 for a prize. Gloves for big kids and adults, mittens for little ones. (While supplies last.)
Talking, singing, reading, writing, and playing with children every day is essential for growing strong readers and successful students. The Library makes it easy with StoryWalks, Storytimes, learning kits, and more. Visit toledolibrary.org/prek12 for more ideas and resources.
The Library StoryWalk installation was made possible in part with support from the Library Legacy Foundation and a Family Engagement Grant from the Toledo Community Foundation.
